I'm looking for new frames and lenses. My prescription is -4.50/-4.75
with no astigmatism.
I am considering rimless, but have had trouble with chromatic
abberations with polycarbs in the past and do not want to go there.

I am considering laser surgery and am looking for recommendations for a
good eye surgeon in the Minneapolis area. I know absolutely nothing
about LASIK, LASEK, and PRK and am wondering if one of them has become
the dominant procedure to use (and which equipment/technology should be

I am planning to have cataract surgery in the near future. Does anyone have
any experience with the new AcrySoft ReSTOR multifocal IOL made by Alcon
inc. If so I would like to know your experience with vision clarity,
adjustment period, night vision problems, etc. Thanks.

Hello. I know it's a seemingly inevitable result of age but does
*everyone* get presbyopia?

I'm curious to what extent, if any, the eyes will adapt to lenses.  For
example, if you took a person with good vision and made him wear lenses
with mild cylinder correction, would he just see blurry in one

After what age should it supposed not to happen spontaneously?

Can you use eye medication while wearing lenses?  I have occasional bouts of
iritis and am going through one now.  My practice has been to put in the
drops, wait awhile and then re-insert the lenses. I haven't had a problem
with this.    Is this an ok practice?  How long does it ...

Every morning, off-white mucous-y stuff collects in the inner corners
of my eyes, particularly when I instill lubricating drops or saline.
Back from trip to Colorado (eyes were thoroughly brutalized) last
night.  As has been my practice, I put Genteal lube in my eyes last

I see lots of postings on your rights to your contact lens
prescription; does the same hold true for your eyeglass prescription?
My sister tells me the mall store where she gets her eyes examined

I've basically just returned to work after two and a half weeks off sick.
Maybe it's the fluorescent lights, but Im looking at things, well, the
